Side Guard

SideGuard – This product insulates the side walls of a container or truck and is normally used in conjunction with our Astro-Cooler® blankets or Astro-Quilts®.  Especially effective for cargo that is pushed right up against the sides of the trailer, SideGuard can be installed in less than 5 minutes.  This is a very economical cold chain management system when used in conjunction with an Astro-Quilt® or Astro-Cooler® Blanket.

This product is considered added thermal protection that can be very useful when shipping on longer routes in extreme temperatures.
